The power of Amazon VPC and
the simplicity of Amazon EC2
New customers in most regions
launch instances into a default
VPC
Default VPC
– One default subnet per Availability
Zone
– A default route table,
preconfigured to send traffic from
the default subnets to the Internet
– An Internet gateway to allow traffic
to flow to and from the Internet

Resource-level Permissions
• Control which users are allowed to take specific actions,
e.g., run, stop, reboot, on which specific resources
• Can use specific resource IDs or use tags to control
access
• Coming soon: ability to tag on run
• Enforced at the API level
• Work with any IAM principal type
– Use these permissions in combination with identity federation tokens, MFAprotected access, and all of the other tools that IAM provides.

16.
New Instances and Instance Features
• New instances give you access to the latest
technologies, e.g. Intel Xeon E5 (Ivy Bridge) and
the latest graphics capabilities
• Continue to drive up performance, improving
price-performance, and enabling new use cases

Reserved Instance Fundamentals
Save up to 65% off on-demand prices
Pay upfront to secure discounts over the term of the
Reserved Instance
Reserved Instance Purchase Parameters
1 or 3 year terms

type most suitable for
your use case using the
new grouping and
instance specifications.
Easily tag your
resources with autocomplete as you type
into the field.
Use existing security
group rules to create a
new one without starting
from scratch.
You can now search for
EBS volume when you
add storage as part of an
instance launch.
